1 Thus amar (spoke) Yahawah (), “Where is the sapar (book / scribed document) of your am (mother) karayathawath (divorce), with which I have shalach (send) her away? Or which of my nashah (creditors) is it to whom I have makar (sold) you? Behold, for your iwan (guilt/iniquity) were you makar (sold), and for your pashai (transgressions) was your am (mother) shalach (send) away.
2 Why, when I bawaa (bring), was there no ayash (man / husband)? When I qaraa (called), was there none to inah (answer / respond)? Is my yad (hand) shortened at qatzar (all), that it can't padawath (redeem)? Or have I no kach (strength / mighty / power) to natzal (deliver)? Behold, at my gairah (rebuke) I charab (dry) up the yam (sea/waters), I shawam (place / establish / appoint) the naharawath (rivers) a madabar (wilderness): their dagah (fish) baash (stink), because there is no mayam (Waters), and mawath (death) for tzamaa (thirst).
3 I labash (clothe) the shamayam (Shamayam / Heavens) with qadarawath (blackness), and I shawam (place / establish / appoint) sackcloth their kasawath (covering).”
4 The Adanay () Yahawah () nathan (give) given me the lashawan (tongue / language) of those who are lamawad (taught), that I may yadai (know) how to sustain with dabar (word / matter) him who is yaip (weary): he wakens baqar (morning) by baqar (morning), he wakens my azan (ear) to shamai (hearken / hear) as those who are lamawad (taught).
5 The Adanay () Yahawah () pathach (has) opened my azan (ear), and I was not rebellious, neither sawag (turned) away backward.
6 I nathan (give) my gaw (back) to the strikers, and my lachay (cheeks) to those who marat (plucked) off the hair; I didn't sathar (hide) my panayam (face) from kalamah (shame) and raq (concept: what comes out / spittle).
7 For the Adanay () Yahawah () will izar (help) me; therefore I have not been kalam (confounded): therefore have I shawam (place / establish / appoint) my panayam (face) like a chalamayash (flint), and I yadai (know) that I shall not be disappointed.
8 He is qarawab (near) who justifies me; who will bring charges against me? Let us imad (stand) up yachad (together): who is my bail (adversary)? Let him nagash (come) near to me.
9 Behold, the Adanay () Yahawah () will izar (help) me; who is he who shall rashai (condemn) me? Behold, all they shall balah (wax) old as a bagad (garment), the ish (made) shall akal (eat) them up.
10 Who is among you who yaraa (fears) Yahawah (), who shamai (hearken / hear) the qawal (sound / voice) of his ibad (servant)? He who halak (move) in chashakah (darkness), and has no nagah (light), let him batach (trust) in the sham (name) of Yahawah (), and shain (rely) on his Alahayam ().
11 Behold, all you who qadach (kindle) a ash (fire), who adorn yourselves with torches around yourselves; yalak (walk) in the awar (light) of your ash (fire), and among the brands that you have bair (kindled). You shall have this of my yad (hand); you shall shakab (lie) down in maitzabah (sorrow).
